Yemen defies ’America’s failure’ to stop blockade of Red Sea

Since Oct. 2023, the government of Yemen, led by the organization Ansarallah, or the “Houthis,“ has maintained a humanitarian blockade of the Red Sea in solidarity with the people of Gaza. Despite attempts by the US and UK to force Yemen to abandon its mission, the blockade has only intensified, escalating to include all US and Israeli shipping, and even the targeting of US warships.
